Why Some Women Think James Franco Is Hot (Okay, Stop Laughing)

Whether or not it's true that James Franco and "Game of Thrones" beauty Emilia Clarke are on their way to couple-town, Clarke may consider if she's even the type of lady that can handle a man like James.

Sometimes rumors are just rumors, but here's one we'd like some more details on, and pronto: James Franco was spotted getting his flirt on with Game of Thrones hottie Emilia Clarke at the Frieze art fair on Randall's Island in New York, according to Page Six.

Clarke, who used to date Seth MacFarlane, as one does, is smoking hot and on what's debatably the most popular television show out there right now, so she's pretty much poised to be the next big thing. As for Franco... Well, he's Franco. He's cross-dressing-degree-getting-method-acting Franco. Nothing new there, but this whole situation does make us wonder: What kind of girl dates James Franco?

It seems it would either take a total star-f*cker or a woman whose patience could out-lift a bodybuilder's to put up with his bouncing-off-the-walls, "Who-Am-I-Today?" routine.

Let's take a closer look:

She wants someone who is down with gay bar-hopping:

He co-directed Interior, Leather Bar, which was called a "homo-sex-art-film" that pays homage to William Friedkin's sexually explicit 1980 movie Cruising. So basically: No need to separate your nights at the gay bars with your ones out with him. Just make sure they know he's already taken.

She wants someone who likes borrowing her clothes:

Franco has no problem with cross-dressing, as he's shown us time and time again. In October 2010, he dressed in full drag on the cover of CANDY magazine, and sported a dress and wig at the Oscars in 2011. We might be a little concerned if he looked a little better in the gear, but dude does not look like a lady.

She wants her man to make sweet, sweet music for her:

James released his first single with his band, Daddy, this past fall, because, you know, he hasn't ventured into enough other mediums. The song, called Love in the Old Days, is a Motown-ish jam and the video that goes with it is not-surprisingly, strange.

She digs the whole sex tape thing:

Franco revealed he's just a regular guy, like Kim Kardashian and Farrah Abraham, when he revealed a few years back that, Hey!, he once made a sex tape too. He just was smart enough not to let anyone see it. The best part for him, however, was he took it as a learning experience (we're surprised he didn't turn it into an art installation somehow). "Anybody who has made a home sex tape knows what feels best doesn't always look best. I remember when I was 19 doing that, and then watching it back and thinking,' Oh, that looks horrible,'" he said during a Newsweek panel in 2011.

She <3s brainiacs:

On top of attending UCLA, he moved to New York to attend Columbia University's MFA writing program, NYU's Tisch School of the Arts for filmmaking, and Brooklyn College for fiction writing. Then there's the whole thing with Yale, but we have a feeling your mind is already blown, because we have a feeling his was too: His grades started slipping when he missed classes for filming 127 Hours, and there was that whole photo debacle of him falling asleep in class.

She has a thang for "performance art":

For instance: When James decided to join the cast of General Hospital, and everyone was like "Huh?!" Well, James was all like, "I'm going to write an essay for the Wall Street Journal to explain myself, because this isn't a role (obviously), this is performance art." How could we all be so dumb to think it was anything but, guys?

She wants a man who refers to himself in the third person:

But only on occasion, to make it extra confusing. Apparently this is an acting technique of the really talented (some of the not-so-talented missed the memo, I guess), because Danny Boyle, who directed 127 Hours, said he would also be very confused when Franco would randomly bust out in third person.

She wants a man who will make teenybopper vids for her:

In the form of spoofing a Justin Bieber song - or whatever it may be. Before Clarke, Franco was linked to his Spring Breakers co-star Ashley Benson and there were rumblings that her pal Justin Bieber didn't like the pairing. Franco took matters into his own hands for a split second by uploading a video of him lip-synching to Bieber's Girlfriend, complete with a cameo of Benson. He quickly deleted the whole, weird jab at the Biebs. We're not sure how he would stand up for his love for Clarke but we hope it would involve costumes. And swords.

So what this leaves us with is: Emilia Clarke, are you bat-sh*t crazy of a woman enough to actually, seriously date James Franco?
